The Hong Kong police found the bodies of a 34-year-old woman and her five-month-old daughter at the bottom of an apartment block last Wednesday in Yau Ma Tei, the police confirmed to MailOnline through an email statement.
The officers were deployed to the scene after receiving a report from a local security guard who spotted the corpses.
‘The woman and the baby girl were certified dead at scene. Initial investigation revealed that they fell from a unit. No will note was found at scene,’ said the police said, who are still investigating the incident.
‘Post-mortem examinations will be conducted later to ascertain the cause of deaths of the deceased.’
The police only identified the deceased by their surname Luo.
However, local news outlets, including HK01 and Ming Pao, have named them as the American-Chinese business woman Ms Luo and her young daughter.
